One of my favorite bands since about March is Bat For Lashes.

I had to post this video because it is just too cool. A lone girl on a bike at night trailed by crazy masked BMX stunt men doing choreographed freestyle tricks in unison. Check it:

My favorite song is actually called “Trophy”. I was unable to find a recorded version online, but I did find this live performance at Maxwell’s in New Jersey:

… as evidenced by this 12 minute video about the band.

Yeah, she’s weird. But what cool beautiful music.
